Abstract:

Suzaku observations of hard X-ray (> 15 keV) selected, bright AGN discovered by INTEGRAL and Swift have revealed several examples of previously unknown Compton Thick (NH > 1e24 cm-2) AGN in the nearby Universe. Their broad band X-ray spectra show a high degree of complexity and a wide range of the relative intensities of the various components (i.e. scattered/reflected fraction; iron line intensity, etc.). We propose a medium/deep Suzaku observation of a bright source detected by INTEGRAL above 15 keV and optically identified with a nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy. Besides the various soft X-ray components, the flat 2-10 keV spectrum and the strong (EW ~ 1 keV) iron line present in an archival XMM-Newton observation strongly suggest that the nucleus is obscured by Compton-Thick gas.
